Subject: zsmalloc: use page->private instead of page->first_page
We are going to rework how compound_head() work. It will not use
page->first_page as we have it now.
The only other user of page->first_page beyond compound pages is
zsmalloc.
Let's use page->private instead of page->first_page here. It occupies
the same storage space.
